使用本地存储库中的git生成错误，在Azure上部署Laravel

Question

I am trying to deploy a new Laravel application to an Azure webapp from a local git repository. In the app settings I configured the following as is suggested for deploying laravel on Azure:

App Settings - SCM_REPOSITORY_PATH => D:\homeepository - SCM_TARGET_PATH => D:\home\site

Virtual Applications and Directories - / => site\public

Kudu - Composer installed as extension

However when I run git push repo master in the command line it runs fine but at the end this is what I see:

 * [new branch]      master -> master 

The files are not in D:\home\site but are in the repository. If I use the default settings the files are deployed but I still get the error. However the response time of the site can be extremely slow over 10s sometimes. I am also wondering if this error is to blame. Has anyone deployed laravel on azure recently and had this problem?

There is no necessary to set these App settings to deploy laravel apps to Azure Web Apps via Git. And by default, the root directory of the web app on Azure is D:\home\site\wwwroot\, usually we don’t need to change it.

You can refer to this answer of Deploy Laravel to Azure to get steps of deploying laravel app to Azure. Also if you need to expose public folder to public, you may refer to laravel 5.1 on windows azure web application.

Especially, according your error message, it seems that you leverage several symfony packages, here is a similar thread on SO "Unable to kill the process" error with "php composer.phar install" on Azure, you can try the methods mentioned there. Otherwise, you can try to first delete cache files, then run the composer command.
